After the father and daughter looked at each other for a moment, Gu Cheng shook his hands and turned his back.

Gu Cheng stared at Bai Su's tablet in the corner with cold eyes.

He suddenly raised his finger and pointed at Gu Meng behind him, gritted his teeth and reprimanded: "Look, this is the good daughter you gave birth to!"

Seeing that Gu Cheng's fingers were trembling slightly, Steward Zhou was obviously very angry, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Master, it's important to take care of yourself."

Gu Meng found it ironic: "Father, my mother is dead! Don't disturb her peace!"

She struggled to stand up, but was kicked to the ground by Gu Cheng suddenly.

Gu Meng lay flat on the bluestone floor, watching Gu Cheng kick her face again...

At this critical moment, Shen Man, who was least likely to come forward to stop him, suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Gu Cheng!

Gu Meng frowned, thinking: "...What's going on here?!"

"Master, don't do this," Shen Man reminded Gu Cheng in a low voice, "The servants are all watching."

Gu Meng didn't expect his father to be so old that his feet were so strong that he could kick his collarbone so painfully even wearing a pair of cloth shoes.

She smiled bitterly silently, and said to herself that Gu Cheng wished he could break his bones with a kick!

Gu Cheng took a deep breath, tried his best to restrain his temper, he turned his head and glanced at the Bai Su tablet before speaking.

"Okay, Gu Meng, I will spare you once today, you kneel in the ancestral hall for me, when you have figured it out, get up again!"

After Gu Cheng finished speaking, he left in a huff. Butler Zhou brought out a tray from somewhere, and hurriedly followed.

Gu Meng glanced at it. Isn't the ruler in the tray that has been passed down from generation to generation by the Gu family.

It seems that Gu Cheng really came prepared!Thinking of this, Gu Meng felt that the root of her tongue was sore, she struggled to get up and kneel down.

Shen Man clasped her hands in front of her body, her eyes followed Gu Cheng's leaving back, and she didn't look down at Gu Meng until the back completely disappeared.

Gu Meng straightened her waist and knelt on the ground without moving. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Shen Man staring at her, but she still stared at the memorial tablet of her deceased mother intently, ignoring her.

Shen Man looked at Gu Meng for a while, and then said four words to Gu Meng one by one: "Okay, self, for, it!"

Ah Mu supported Shen Man to leave, and Gu Meng vaguely heard Ah Mu gossiping with her.

"Miss, you shouldn't have stopped uncle just now, she deserves that little bastard..."

As the two walked farther and farther away, the sound of Shen Man's high-heeled shoes tapping and E'Mu's dissatisfied grunts became weaker and weaker.

Gu Meng knelt upright without turning her head, but hearing the footsteps, she knew that the four bodyguards outside the door hadn't left.

Gu Cheng specially left the bodyguards to guard Gu Meng. He punished Gu Meng to kneel in the ancestral hall, and he was not allowed to get up unless he gave in.

This was the first time that Gu Cheng beat Gu Meng by himself. At this moment, Gu Meng had a belief in his heart: Even if I knelt here for three days and three nights, I would never compromise!

The sun was setting, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone in through the glass on the Chinese-style carved wooden door, casting rectangles of light and shadow on the bluestone floor.

Gu Meng knelt down until her legs were numb, without any feeling, and the stretch from the tailbone up to the neck was all stiff.

Her face was pale, fine beads of sweat oozed from her forehead, and her head was also groggy...

But even so, Gu Meng still propped up his body and knelt in an orderly manner.

The bodyguards guarding the door were replaced halfway through, and Gu Meng knelt down for eight or nine hours.

Although the bodyguards looked cold on the surface, Gu Meng knew in her heart that if she was lazy, they would turn a blind eye.

But when Gu Meng's stubborn temper came up, she knelt up straight, she just wanted to challenge Gu Cheng!

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom..."

The rapid ringtone of the mobile phone suddenly rang in the quiet ancestral hall.

Gu Meng moved his arm reluctantly, and took out the phone from his trouser pocket, it was Li Jie!

"Hey."

Gu Meng has not spoken for eight or nine hours in a row, and when she opened her mouth, she found that her throat was tight.

"Gu Meng, where are you?"

Li Jie only heard Gu Meng say "Hello", and keenly sensed that something was wrong with her.

"I'm in the family ancestral hall."

Gu Meng knelt down a bit, and even spoke weakly.

"I'll come over now!"

Li Jie hung up the phone, grabbed the car keys and went out.

Before Li Jie left in the morning, he specifically told Gu Meng to call him if he had something to do. He didn't receive a call from Gu Meng at the company during the day. He thought that Gu Meng's trip to Gu's house this time would go smoothly.

It wasn't until he returned to the apartment and found that Gu Meng was not there that he had a bad feeling and quickly contacted Gu Meng.

Hearing Gu Meng's voice, he knew something must have happened.

Li Jie raced all the way to the family ancestral hall, accompanied by a sharp screech of brakes, the sports car stopped directly at the gate of the ancestral hall.

Li Jie got out of the car and rushed in, but was stopped by four bodyguards standing outside the hall.

"Go away!" he yelled sullenly.

"I offended you, Young Master Li, master..."

Li Jie was too lazy to listen to the other party's long-winded words, so he kicked the person who was talking.

Before the bodyguard at the side could react, he quickly made a move, grabbed the opponent's wrist and fell over the shoulder, and immediately knocked down another person.

Seeing this, the two bodyguards in the back row joined hands and waved their fists, but Li Jie took it abruptly.

Li Jie held the opponent's fist with both hands, twisted it hard, and with a "click", he directly twisted and dislocated the arms of the two bodyguards facing him.

There was a burst of wailing in the ancestral hall, and Gu Meng knew that it was Li Jie who was trying to force his way in.

Li Jie's skill was indeed not for him, and he knocked down the four bodyguards of the Gu family in just 3 minutes.

The bodyguards tacitly did not counterattack after being repelled. Since they couldn't counterattack, they were asking for trouble.

The most important thing is, if he really accidentally hurt the young master of the Li family, the consequences would be unimaginable!

As soon as Li Jie entered the hall, he saw Gu Mengzheng kneeling alone in front of the tablet of Gu's family. He was suddenly furious, and his blood rushed straight to his forehead!

He stepped forward quickly, half squatted and half kneeled in front of Gu Meng, and questioned his head and face: "Didn't I tell you to call me if I have something to do? Why didn't you contact me when you were punished by kneeling?"

"Li Jie, don't yell," Gu Meng looked up at him with difficulty, "I have a headache from the noise."

Only then did Li Jie notice that Gu Meng's left face was slightly swollen, with five finger prints remaining on it.

Her lips, which were always pink and moist, were frighteningly pale at the moment, probably due to not drinking water for a day, and the lower lip was dry and crusted.

Li Jie stared at Gu Meng's face, his eyes were full of distress, and most of the anger in his heart was extinguished in an instant.

He picked up Gu Meng and said in a very soft voice, "Okay, I don't want to yell at you, don't frown, and be careful of forehead wrinkles."

Gu Meng half-closed her eyes and leaned on Li Jie's chest, and couldn't help but smile a little when he heard him say that.

Looking at Gu Meng's forced smile, Li Jie had mixed emotions in his heart, and his face was extremely ugly.

Gu Meng asked slowly: "Why don't you tell me not to laugh? If you laugh too much, you will get crow's feet."

Li Jie stared at the corner of Gu Meng's eyes for a while, then suddenly lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead: "Don't be poor, I'll take you home."

"Okay." Gu Meng opened and closed his mouth, his voice was inaudible.

She fell asleep in the car.
